    This is a place that really cares deeply about crafting anything based on noodles or doughs with…read moreexacting expectations. They have a series of vegetarian appetizers, but that's not their focus. In terms of the overall experience, the staff is very friendly and on top of things. We ordered takeout, but the online ordering site didn't give us a confirmation of our order. A quick call to the restaurant confirmed that everything was received and already in process. In terms of the food, the wood ear mushrooms and tofu skins was a clear winner. The broccoli was fine, but I would have preferred Chinese broccoli or watercress if they were available. The five spiced eggplant was fine: steamed to a custard-like level of softness, then paired with a salty sauce and served cold. The dan dan noodles were probably best suited for a dine-in experience and didn't really travel well. My partner tells me that the stuffed pork buns were good, but the solid piece of pork in the center was less optimal than something shredded or thinned out with some vegetable matter. All told, this was a good experience. The vegetarian appetizers were good but not exceptional. The various noodle and bun dishes were very nicely crafted. The hand made noodles were a particularly nice touch, with a lot more flavor and texture than I would have ever expected. If I have any requests, it would be for more vegetable centric noodle options.

The menu had many of the expected food items as well as others not so common. On Saturday and Sunday there are many, many more. I always start with vegetable spring rolls. These were especially good. Also had the tasty pancake beef rolls. Will stop again next time we are near the McCandless Ross Townships border. The restaurant is bright, cheery, and clean. No dim sum carts however. Ample parking abounds in the McIntyre Square complex.

We ordered takeout this time, and the overall experience was great. We placed an order online, and everything was very neatly packaged and ready to go when expected. The food even travelled fairly well, such that it was still in good shape after traveling home. The restaurant itself is in a bit of a drab strip mall, but it's generally nicely decorated with colorful signage and a nicely kept interior. In terms of the food, the shrimp spinach dumplings were really nicely done, with lots of flavor and texture. My partner especially enjoyed the barbecue pork bao, which were nicely steamed with a very flavorful filling. The egg tart was good, but not really my thing. It had a bit of a caramelized sugar flavor reminiscent of waffles with syrup. The spicy oil splashed noodles, one of the noodle dishes on the menu, was generally lacking: some nice toppings, but not much flavor. Overall, this is a nice little place that seems to be fairly well run. I suggest going for the dim sum and giving up on expectations for anything on the menu that isn't dim sum. Find another restaurant for your main course.

My husband and I ordered only one plate of Sunrise Chicken Dumplings here--yes, a tiny sampling of the menu. They cost $17 plus tax and tip. Please note that the dumplings that I as a real, paying customer received did NOT look like the dumplings that the Instagram influencers receive. Multiple 5-star reviews below were written by influencers who did Instagram collabs with this restaurant. (Btw, Yelp's policies do NOT permit influencers to write Yelp reviews for collabs.) Their Instagram reels and their Yelp reviews contain images of dumplings accompanied with beautiful plating with extra designs such as flowers. My dumplings had NO extra designs on the plate at all, even though I ordered one of the same flavors. (I acknowledge that some "regular people" Yelp reviewers seem to genuinely like this restaurant, depending on what they ordered.) As for the flavors of the dumplings, both my husband and I thought that the dumplings were definitely some of the worst that we have ever tasted in our lives. They tasted OK only if we doused them with sauce, and they were still NOT enjoyable to eat. My husband was very hungry from eating almost nothing all day, but between the two of us, we did not even finish our one plate of dumplings.

The food is always so good, hot, and fresh even though I live about 20 minutes away. When you order any noodle soups, the staff will package the noodles, broth, and toppings all separately so nothing gets soggy. I have ordered the tan tan seafood ramen the last few times we've ordered from here, and I will probably order it again next time because it is so so good. The broth has a perfect spice to it an the creaminess helps balance that. I can't place an order without their takoyaki either. They're super generous with the benito flakes, which I love. This place is always a hit and definitely one of my most ordered delivery spots.

I do like soup noodles but it kinda just tasted regular and homey to me. I don't think there was much meat or veggies in it at all though. - steamed mini soup dumplings There were pretty good too (considering we are in Pittsburgh tbh). It's also at a decent price, sometimes I've seen soup dumplings for more than $15 which is ridiculous. It had some good flavor, and wasn't easy to rip the skin. I think the skin thickness was appropriate, not too thin or too thick. Glad to have some nostalgic and satisfying food around. It came hot but I wish we had the cover so we could delay the food from getting cold too quickly. - fish fillet w/ basil and garlic in stone hot pot I personally think this was the best dish. It was well seasoned and came sizzling hot with a side of rice. It has a tasty sauce that combined with the rice is amazing. Free street parking and plenty of tables inside. I'd get a reservation if you're bringing a lot of people like more than 6.
